PROBLEM 19.23 (a) Use the relations in Section 19.4 for continuous variables to determine the expected value and stan­dard deviation for the distribution of f(DY) in Problem 19.11. (b) It is possible to calculate the probability of a continuous variable Y between two points (a, b) using the following integral:


Problem 19.11
Carla is a statistician with a bank. She has col­lected debt-to-equity mix data on mature (M) and young (Y) companies. The debt percentages vary from 20% to 80%. Carla has defined DM as a vari­able for the mature companies from 0 to 1, with DM = 0 interpreted as the low of 20% debt and DM = 1.0 as the high of 80% debt. The variable for young corporation debt percentages DY is similarly defined. The probability distributions used to de­scribe DM and DY are
